If I were Newt....

I would campaign in Virginia and urge Republicans to vote in the primary but to NOT vote for the top spot to show the big wigs on Wall Street that Romney is not the candidate of Main Street....

That's what I would do.

It would be a risk but Newt is, if nothing else, a risk taker....

I'm not sure it's really in his character.

And I don't see how it would directly benefit him...

I thought the talking heads on tv said it was going to be on February 7th.
But, I read a schedule posted here yesterday of the GOP primaries and it said it was going to be on March 6th.
Here's the link to the GOP schedule --

I feel like Barbarino, "I'm so confused."
